An Unusual Variational Anatomy of the Medial Circumflex Femoral Artery: A Case Report of a Post-catheterization Femoral Arteriovenous Fistula.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The medial circumflex femoral artery (MCFA) typically presents as a major branch of the profunda femoris artery or it can also directly originate from the common femoral artery. Many anatomical variations of the MCFA have been described due to their clinical significance. We herein report a case of an unusual anatomical variation of the MCFA crossing anterior to the femoral vein that led to iatrogenic arteriovenous fistula formation after cardiac catheterization. The identification of such rare vascular anatomical variations is of great importance when attempting femoral arterial or venous puncture in order to minimize unnecessary complications.
